Help needed w/hunting study

Basenji Training
  • I have NO additional information about this; I'm simply cross-posting from another site,The Basenji Native Traits Preservation Project :

    Hi all,

    I have written a few posts and had an article printed in the Basenji
    about some testing we developed for hunting traits in basenjis. I had
    asked for a little help with the testing and for volunteer dogs with
    the testing being conducted on one or two days during the Nationals.
    I received a couple of calls and well wishes for the project but
    nobody has really stepped forward.

    I'm fine with it if nobody is really interested; I just don't really
    have the time to set this all up and not have any dogs to test. So, I
    am throwing out one last request for help and dogs. Feel free to
    cross post this request. If I don't get any significant response by
    9/10/07 I will have to shut the testing program down for the time being.

    i bet that when rogues adult teeth come in she will be able to do the egg test though. she has a very soft touch when she wants to.

    @lvoss: My basenjis learn new things very quickly but they also get bored more quickly. In classes that ask for you to repeat over and over again to make sure the dog "gets it", basenjis start to goof off. All of mine get to a point where their behavior and attitude clearly say, "What is wrong with you, didn't you get this the first 5 times I did it?" This is so true! Tillo starts to talk when it takes too long for me to get the fact that he already understands the command.. so there's no need to practice anymore :D

    She is obsessed with those furry gray things and hunting would help tire her out!! You have to be carefull with squirrels. Our dog catches them but does not know how to kill, so he plays with them but gets bit up really bad by the squirrel.

    IMHO, please be careful with the alpha roll over, I used to do that when I first started dog training many years ago, I eventually had an aggression problem with the dog, got bit pretty good. I guessed it was my fault and never rolled one since. I never used pacifiers with my son, so no dog troubles there, but his blanky got stolen often. gg It sure cannot hurt to put the litterbox there and see what happens, its easy, fairly clean, and better than cleaning the rug often. You could also try using a scatter rug over the other rug, see if that helps any! I have one spot where one of the dogs, having gotten too excited, peed, they still go there if excited. I love my dogs, oh well its only in the hall. ggg Good luck, hope you find a solution! Carole
